Author field revert back to orginal creator

[khraibani]

Hi @Shazwazza, every time I change the author field to a new author after I press save & publish it keep reverting back to the original creator.

Umbraco v8.14.1
Articulate v4.3.2

[Shazwazza]

Is this on a vanilla Umbraco & Articulate install?

[khraibani]

Yep.

[khraibani]

Hi, I thought this might be due to the way I have installed the package, so I have uninstalled and reinstalled it from the CMS. (uninstalled it from the packages sections, and did Uninstall-Package from Package Manager Console) - Then I did a fresh install.
I have also upgraded the CMS to v18.15.2 due to a known issue with Url.GetCropUrl (images crops weren't loading on v8.14.1) which has fixed it.
None of the above has solved the issue with author reverting back to orginal creator or the published date. Could it be with anything to do with having variants enabled on the document type?

I copied a dump of the request & the response back: The author = "Jane Doe" which revert back to "Hussein Khraibani"
Thank you for your help!

Could it be with anything to do with having variants enabled on the document type?

You can try to do a clean/vanilla install with Umbraco and Articulate without changing anything and see if that is the cause.

Here's the code that updates content on save when values are empty to give you an idea of what is happening: https://github.com/Shazwazza/Articulate/blob/develop/src/Articulate/Components/ArticulateComponent.cs#L181
